yes, you have posted this question before. Please do not start a new thread on the same subject. It confuses the members that have already answered your questions.

I have merged all your messages into one thread here on the TV problem sticking

Pretty sure all TransGo kits have that spring. It shouldn't cause binding/sticking. If the Bore is severely worn/grooved it may be causing the problem. Only Reaming & a new Valve will fix it, if that's what's happening.
If you've tried the snatch/jerk & release method to free the TV and the problem is returning there's something wrong in the Bore or alot of trash/debri in it.

is it posable that the Throttle Valve is stiking bc of the spring that they say will keep it from sticking?

Yes, i mentioned it in my 1st Post above.
I noticed in you have another Post about the TV Valve. If you're still having that problem you may need to take the ValveBody & have the TV bore reamed & new/larger TV installed to correct the problem, mentioned above also. If the Bore is badly worn/grooved causing the Valve to bind/stick that's the only thing that will fix it. Could possibly find a cheap Rebuilt/Remanned Valvebody if the Trans has lots of miles on it. There's an old Thread on here with Info about a guy that sold them, 700R4/4L60/4L60E Vbodies.

i was looking around and found a TRANSGO JR shift kit and it said that it fixs the sticking tv valve and other stuff is this kit any good?

It has 3 levels of shift feel & 2 shift options, it can be setup to shift how you want. Competition, Off road And Pro-street.
I recommend the Auto/Manual combo shift option or Gear Command with automatic upshifts.

i have a 1984 chevy c10 with a 700r4 and the throttle valve is getting stuck even tho it had the after market spring in it that they say will keep it from getting stuck what should i do?should i take the spring out or what?

just be careful with the 700 2-3 kit as it will allow any gear at any speed (yes that means if youre doing 100 mph and go for low gear, it WILL go into low gear). so, a bit of precaution should be excersized with that kit...
